Introduction to 2 Corinthians

2 Corinthians

January 7, 2024 • Dr. Rick Gregory • 2 Corinthians 1

The conflicts that plagued the Apostle Paul were constant. False teachers were constantly making accusations about Paul – declaring that he was a self-appointed, inferior man who merely claimed to be an apostle; that he was misleading the people he taught; that his teachings were contrary to the Law; that he violated Roman Law; that he was financially motivated, seeking personal gain; that he was preaching a Gospel contrary to the other Apostles in Jerusalem; and that he was personally unimpressive and inferior. Many of these accusations, Paul sets straight throughout the book of 2 Corinthians. However, ultimately, Paul’s passion in writing was to promote Jesus Christ – as He always preached the Cross of Christ to the glory of Christ.
